[PATCH] ipvs: clear IPv4 options after rebasing tunnel ICMP errors

[David Lee]

ip_vs_in_icmp() rebases an skb from the outer ICMP packet to the
quoted original request before passing it to icmp_send(). However,
IPCB(skb)->opt still describes the outer IPv4 header.

A timestamp option in the outer header can therefore leave an offset
that points into the quoted transport header after the rebase.
__ip_options_echo() treats a byte at that stale location as the option
length and copies it into the fixed-size option storage on the
__icmp_send() stack, causing a stack out-of-bounds write.

Clear the stale option metadata after resetting the network header.
Keep the remaining control block fields, including the ingress
interface used by the ICMP response path.

Trail of Bits has a reproducer for this bug that triggers a
KASAN stack-out-of-bounds write in __ip_options_echo() and can share if needed.
